These look pretty cool. Ought to provide the same function as the more expensive options at a (removable) fraction of the cost. I'll be ordering one soon.

If I didn't have a nice, badger-esque aluminum knob sitting around waiting to be installed on my heavy barrel M700 I'd consider one of these; but I really like the aluminum knob. I just need to get up the gumption to grind down my bolt handle to take the knob...[Eek3]
I went the badger route
wish I would have kept it stock
First I have seen this product. I think I need to get one.
Those are huge and ugly in person.
I have shot a rifle that had one on it. It was ok. They would sell 10x as many if they would charge closer to the $3 its worth.
Sometimes I just gotta sit back and scratch my head a little.
This is one of those times.
Yup, ugly as sin.Quote:

Plus its under $30 and you can install it yourself. What does a bolt handle job cost $100-$150?
Hehehehe "bolt handle job"[ROFL1]
I was thinking along the lines of "were you having trouble operating the bolt they way it came from the factory?"
Although I suppose I like the extended frame safety on 1911's, so I really don't have much room to point fingers.
Still think that looks like a soup can hanging off the rifle. [Coffee]
She wishes it was a "soup can"!
And I am picking up a new rifle that has one... So it may be for sale here soon. Stop ruining the market!
Bert do you do bolt handle threading?

For a knob install $40.00-50.00 usually covers it not including the cost of the knob.
I could see $100-150.00 for fluting(which is a waste IMO) but not for a simple knob install.
That silly plastic thing just looks like cheap crap. You want to hang that on your $1K + tackdriver?
So very true... maybe if it was Digi-Cam[Tooth]Quote:

For what its worth...
Just used mine today; and I can tell you, it worked great. It is a perfectly adequate solution for improving you bolt lift and cycling. I was skeptical at first, but once I was behind the rifle you couldn't even tell it was there, It just works.
If I didn't already have a Badger bolt now sitting on my bench I would for sure keep it... but as always I will be throwing good money after bad at another rifle. [Neene1]
So look for it: Coming Soon to a Trading Post near you...
Or go buy one your self...
"Perfectly Adequate" and DYI...
